Collection identifier: FR 4198.

OMB control number: 7100-0326.

Frequency: Annually.

Respondents: Bank holding companies, savings and loan holding companies, state-licensed branches and agencies of foreign banks (other than insured branches), corporations organized or operating under sections 25 or 25A of the Federal Reserve Act (agreement corporations and Edge corporations), and state member banks.

Estimated number of respondents: Implementation of Recordkeeping Guidance, 37; Ongoing Recordkeeping, 4,646.

General description of collection: The Interagency Policy Statement on Funding and Liquidity Risk Management (Guidance) was issued to provide consistent interagency expectations on sound practices for managing funding and liquidity risk. The Guidance includes a number of voluntary recordkeeping provisions that apply to the respondents listed above. The recordkeeping provisions relate to liquidity risk management policies, procedures, and assumptions, and contingency funding plans.

Legal authorization and confidentiality: The recordkeeping provisions of the Guidance are authorized pursuant to sections 9(6), 25, and 25A of the Federal Reserve Act? 1 (for state member banks, agreement corporations, and Edge corporations, respectively); section 5(c) of the Bank Holding Company Act? 2 (for bank holding companies); section 10(b)(3) of the Home Owners' Loan Act? 3 (savings and loan holding companies); and section 7(c)(2) of the International Banking Act? 4 (state-licensed branches and agencies of foreign banks, other than insured branches).

Because these records would be maintained at each banking organization, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) would only be implicated if the Board obtained such records as part of the examination or supervision of a banking organization. In the event the records are obtained by the Board as part of an examination or supervision of a financial institution, this information may be considered confidential pursuant to exemption 8 of the FOIA, which protects information contained in "examination, operating, or condition reports" obtained in the bank supervisory process. 5 In addition, the information may also be kept confidential under exemption 4 of the FOIA, which protects nonpublic commercial or financial information, which is both customarily and actually treated as private by the respondent. 6
